such a nice car and to see that happen.. sucks. AWsome swap. so clean.

 

good job on the swap, looks like a clean job. What kind of hp gain did you get swapping from the original engine setup?

 

Wow, so did this wreck happen like just yesterday? Is it just a normal thing for people that do big things with their car, or even just turbo it somehow lose it very soon after? Well, at least it wasn't your fault (right?), so good luck with whatever comes of that.

 

whoa when did that wreck happen?

 

holy f--- I was just going through the wreck pics again and noticed the piece of the rotor sitting in the wheel. Wow, they had to be going at least 40 right into something to jack the wheel up that much and break a rotor.

 

i got a 30-35 WHP gain just on the motor alone!
over all though...167WHP (UNTUNED!!)

this happened on December 2nd 2006. It was at a going away party for one of our MODS over on SCLC...
thanks...im still fighting with the Insurance company (believe it or not).

not only was the rotor off...but the WHOLE brake sustem broke off...the bolts (as you can see) are STILL ON THE WHEEL!! So was the caliper, what was left of that rotor and everything else that goes with the brake assembly. It is my belief that when they (i say "they" cuz the neighbors called the cops and reported that 2 white males were seen jumping out and running from the scene) hauled a** after getting in and not knowing that it had an immobilizer tried to get away ASAP...except that right b4 the corner it looked as if they lost control and went head first (no visible skid marks) the CORNER of a wall!!!

 

so wat are you drivin now? redoing a lancer?

 

regretfully...no.

since i havent got reimbersed for my loss yet, i had to get what i could afford at the time...

although, I AM on the waiting list for the 08 RALLIART!!! 4B11T AWD...here I come?

right now I am in 5th gen Lude. its really fun to drive, especially with all the s**t I put into it!

 

Damn, well at least now I know how that immobilizer works, cause I've seen them advertised on other cars. And yeah, you can pretty much fit a wall corner right into the front of the car for a perfect fit. Well, good luck with insurance and have fun with the prelude.

 

man i gotta give you props for coming back here and showing us a write up even with your loss... i think this should be a Sticky!!

 

thanks bro...

when I started the swap (or better said-when I was made known of the idea), I wanted to do it cuz 1. NO ONE had done it before. 2. I wanted ALL Lancer owners to get out from under the slap in the face that Mitsu gave the non Evo Lancer's as far as performance goes. And 3. Set the stage to make the Lancer as tune-able as, and as much apart of the "tuning community" as any Honda out there.

So take all of this knowledge guys and out do me and evry doubtful person out there that hates on the non Evo Lancer...sh*t, even beat on a few evo's with that 4G63 head swap! THAT WOULD BE A SURPRISE FOR THEM!! hahahahaha...

 

Dang it. Now I want to do this soooooo bad. I may do this swap instead of getting a bike.

 

if ANYONE has ANY questions, please feel free to ask me...
either PM or this thread...

I would perfer this thread that way everyone can share in the knowledge...
